Just a fan and book reader of Assembly, but I totally agree with you.  This
book is pretty darn good and, unlike other books, focused on Linux.

The only Assembly related Source Forge page I pull from Google is:
http://asm.sourceforge.net/resources.html

... which lists all Assembly projects/books/info.

The only page I know of related to "Programming from the Ground Up" by
Jonathan Bartlett is:
http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/pgubook/


Is the nongnu.org site what you meant to say instead of sf.net?

I believe we mentioned compiling all the errata/bugs and posting them someplace
4-6 years ago, but doesn't seem much progress was made on this.

Shame to see such a great little book mothballed!
